Description

“Venice, one of the most painted, filmed and prozed about cities in the world, is beautiful. There is nothing that can prepare you for that first gaze upon the domes and towers that arise from the smooth, grey waters like a fata morgana. On sunny days, when the water reflects the sun creating thousands of little magical lights, the city becomes vibrant and the atmosphere loaded with some kind of magic. During starry nights, the many allies, stairs, bridges and squares become an enchanted maze in which even the most experienced cartographer will get lost without a guide. This City will mesmerize you and stay with you until you will be taken all over again by its beauty on a next visit. The Venice Carnival is joy, seduction, transgression… in a word: freedom. From the city streets to Saint Mark’s Square to the majestic palaces overlooking the Grand Canal, the whole city is in celebration and will involve visitors in a unique experience.
